I am sure other members may have more to say on this topic. For those who want to practice Rajayoga - Brahmacharya is essential. Swami Vivekananda has warned that without celibacy a student of Rajayoga can get into serious difficulties. For the householders Sri Ramakrishna has said very simply:- Marriage is not a licence for lust... after the birth of one or two children husband and wife should live like brother and sister..
